One of our finest artistes: Jagadeesh

Kalpana was a talented actress and a bold woman who spoke her mind. She had exceptional sense of humour, too, says actor Jagadeesh.

I still remember the chemistry we shared while we acted in Dr. Pasupathi , way back in 1990. We had several comic scenes in it.

She was absolutely hilarious as UDC Kumari.

Another film I enjoyed doing greatly was

Malayogam . We went on to work together in several films.

She was a good friend too, we would often talk over phone. She was good at languages.

Not many know that she had great knowledge in astrology.

She used to read a lot of books on the subject.

She told me that she had badly wanted to work with Jagathy Sreekumar again. It is sad to know that she could not fulfill that wish.

She was one of our finesh character artistes.

And I feel she should have got more recognition for her talent, he says.
